Foods That Make You Happy
Mostly, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and must be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is very true. Other times, comfort foods can be very nutritious and good for us to consume. There are several foods that basically can improve your moods when you eat them. If you seem to feel a little bit down and you need a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be truly wonderful at beating back depression. Just be sure that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. When you wish to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most vital part of the egg. Eggs, specifically the yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. These B vitamins are terrific for helping to improve your mood. This is because these vitamins improve the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Consume an egg and feel a lot better!
Put together a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all wonderful for raising your mood. This is possible since these foods are high in magnesium which increases serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that directs your brain how you feel all the time. The more of it you have, the better you are going to feel. Not just that, nuts, in particular, are a terrific protein food source.
Cold water fish are excellent if you wish to feel better. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all rich in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you fight back depression.
Some grains are actually excellent for repelling bad moods. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all actually wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. These grains can help you feel full for longer also, helping you feel better. Feeling starved can actually bring you down! The reason these grains help your mood so much is that they are not difficult for your stomach to digest. You digest them more quickly than other things which can help boost your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Green tea is really good for your mood. You just knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea has been found to be packed full of an amino acid called L-theanine. Studies have found that this amino acid basically induces brain waves. This helps raise your mental sharpness while having a relaxing effect on the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you be better. Now you know that green tea helps you to lift your moods as well!
Now you know that junk food isn’t necessarily what you need to eat when you wish to help your moods get better. Try a few of these suggestions instead.
